THE CRYPTO, Non-Restricted 5.56 IN STOCK NOW !!!
- Thread starter G4C
- Start date
All you had to do was look up the rifle in question. The "Crusader Templar". They manufactured them with garbage tolerances and that side wall shot featured definitely was more than enough for me to remember that same terrible design featured on the Templar.
we can refire up the design in question.
^^^ This is the area in question on the cryoto and a quick look at another social platform I can find a post very quickly about the Templar rifle that has the same design. But flawed, a milled side wall that crumbles under pressure. As stated by the poster.
We are not talking some Triple A company here, maybe a Triple A play with this release. But definitely not the company. I was going to purchase one of these rifles to be a guinea pig, but getting some insights into what I am getting is key before I purchase. Crusader isn't picking up a never before created platform. They are delivering an old idea in a new way to be compliant. Carrying this design flaw from one rifle to another is enough for me to say " I shouldn't guinea pig this one"
Maybe this will have problems with a thin receiver. Maybe not. No way to know until someone gets one and takes a caliper reading.
Assuming that this rifle will be thin at the paddle release, because another proprietary receiver design of theirs was, isn’t a foregone conclusion.
Truth is, they aren’t reinventing the wheel with this receiver set, as they had been with the Templar. - Except for how the upper and lower mate, it’s a proven design that won’t accept STANAG magazines.
If they get the receiver right, like ATRS, Maccabee Defense, and the BCL Coyote did, the rest is plug and play with Lego parts that most of us have.
To me, it’s worth the 2k gamble.
Of course there are things they can mess up - Magazine angle, mag release depth, and other geometry.
What they cant mess up, or it shouldn’t be difficult to mess up, is soft bolts, poorly heat treated trigger components, snapped pistons (no piston), crappy barrels with bad chambers, etc - because those are all readily available components from well established manufacturers.
Time will tell, but expecting thin receivers from a grainy, paused, YouTube video isn’t just inconclusive, but rather conjecture.
Maybe Crusader will hit this out of the park.

where did you get this 10" can idea from....
Better than nothing isnt it? Koodos to them for bringing another rifle into the market that isnt a bolt action.

Nooo! lol was waiting until payday on friday to order mine,
has anyone heard if crusader themselves are already shipping?
Reports from taccom point towards lots of great options coming out this year. perhaps a decision delayed is a decision better made

My test results: I ran 50 rounds of Winchester 223rem ammo with it yesterday and it had no problems.,this rifle works very well
Mine works just fine also.
